Everton star delivers bold comments ahead of new season, fans should like this

Our Everton fans here in the Transfer Tavern are gearing up for their latest venture into Europe as they get their Europa League campaign underway tomorrow night.

The men from Goodison Park will certainly be looking to go far in the competition as it is likely that is going to be the catalyst for them to build further on the good work that has been done so far under Ronald Koeman.

For sure, then, the Toffees will be looking to start brightly and the game will also mark the first proper examination of the new-look team in a competitive environment.

The likes of Jordan Pickford, then, will be aiming to provide a good display ahead of the Premier League campaign and he has been quoted by the club’s Twitter as saying that he expects them to only go up this season.

He said:

| @JPickford1 insists #EFC have the strength in depth to be a force in the @EuropaLeague this season.
